Fayette Township sample ballot, Hillsdale County: November 3, 2026

On April 1, 2026, the Fayette Township Board of Trustees adopted Ordinance No. 2026-02, titled “Zoning Administrator.” The Ordinance is to amend Section 18.10.B of the Township Zoning Ordinance to remove the reference to “Legislative Body.” The purpose of this amendment is to allow a Township Board member to also serve as Township Zoning Administrator. The Ordinance also provides for severability, repeal of all prior ordinances in conflict and an effective date. Shall Ordinance No. 2026-02, which amends the Township Zoning Ordinance to allow Township Board members to serve as Township Zoning Administrator be approved?

This proposal will allow the school district to continue to levy the statutory rate of not to exceed 18 mills on all property, except principal residence and other property exempted by law, required for the school district to receive its full revenue per pupil foundation allowance and renews millage that will expire with the 2026 tax levy. Shall the currently authorized millage rate limitation of 19.5507 mills ($19.5507 on each $1,000 of taxable valuation) on the amount of taxes which may be assessed against all property, except principal residence and other property exempted by law, in Jonesville Community Schools, Hillsdale and Jackson Counties, Michigan, be renewed for a period of 10 years, 2027 to 2036, inclusive, to provide funds for operating purposes; the estimate of the revenue the school district will collect if the millage is approved and 18 mills are levied in 2027 is approximately $1,683,375 (this is a renewal of millage that will expire with the 2026 tax levy)?
